Welcome to Lord Grey Academy Alumni
For a long time universities have established Alumni networks where ex-students can keep in contact with each other and hear of successes and achievements. Many schools have developed Alumni networks too and at Lord Grey we think there is great value in keeping in contact with fellow students and staff of the academy.
We are looking to use our Academy Alumni as a great source of inspiration and advice to our current students. We are inviting all ex-students who want to be part of our alumni to contact us and tell us their stories. You could be an important role model to our current students as they move forward with their studies. You may feel you could contribute to mentoring programmes or be prepared to speak at award ceremonies, career events and prize giving celebrations. We are always delighted when ex-students come back and talk to us and our students about their experiences.
Our first task is to re-connect with you and find out what you have accomplished since leaving Lord Grey. If you are happy to spare a few moments please click and complete our form. We would love to hear your stories.
Share your story
Do you have a story to tell, please let us know? There are some fantastic and inspiring stories from our Alumni and we would like to share your journey. Please complete the form below. Required fields are marked with an asterisk (*). We will put the spotlight on some and show them off on our Alumni Profile Page on the academy website and in our Newsletter.
